I tried a cheap one that was made for hunters and keyword is cheap. It never worked as expected. I've been looking for a log6 but I guess they went out of business so this year I bought a unit on amazon for about 65 dollars, which is still much cheaper than the commercial units. The limitation is that it can only run for 20 minutes at a time but it is working great. I am careful about using it but I like your carbon filter mask idea to be safe. I have an airtight storage container that I ran the tubing into so I load my stuff into that and let it go. I have also done my truck overnight a few times and then aired it out pretty good. I think with the machine in the tree that the ozone disperses too quickly for it to be effective.
fawnzy said:Speaking of ozone. I have a commercial grade machine. I treat my and as many others clothing as I can in my van at night. Then in the morning the clothes are ready to go and any odours inside my van have been wiped out for the drive. It's important you use the machine away from people or animals. Ozone is very powerful and will attack the soft tissue of your eyes and lungs.
Over time it will also degrade soft rubber, foam, and elastic. Things like elastic cuffs or suspenders will eventually be affected, even the foam around the door of your car is vulnerable, but for the limited exposure I doubt you would ever notice a difference.
The temps are cool in the fall and this makes it difficult for ozone to break down and it could last for several hours in cold temps. I always wear a P100 rated carbon filter mask when using Ozone. When done, I open the doors of my van to clear it out, otherwise it could still be there in the morning.
Your clothes will still smell like ozone in the morning. If you smell ozone while treating, you are putting yourself at risk. The O3 is still active.
Stop the treatment and move it to another location. Ozone works but use it with caution.
As far as the machine that goes into the tree or ground blind? Again, if you can smell it when it's being produced, it's too much exposure. You would have to stay upwind in a tree and I don't think u would ever sit in an enclosed blind with one running.
